Portuguese term or phrase: Traçagem
I'm translating a request for clarifications in a "Contrato de Concessão." There is a list of maintenance work to be performed. One of the jobs is called, "Substituiço da Traçagern e do Isolarnento da Tubagern." How would traçagem be rendered in US English?

Many Thanks,

Douglas
